Suggested rev limit for S1's on stock turbo?
I'm hoping Greg can chime in here, what is the suggested rev limit or the max for S1's on the stock turbo? I just want to know where it should be at without putting the engine at any risk. i know power falls off anways, but would like to know for my own peace of mind.
Thanks

7500-7800 on the stock valve springs and the S1. when you dyno the car you will notice its probably a good idea to shift around 7k or just over it, there is more ussuable power if you shift earlier than later on the stock turbo even with cams.

So if I upgraded the turbo and ran lets say a green, running the S1's to 8k wouldnt be safe on stock valve springs? What upgrade path would you recommend at the minimum to be safe?
